Not long since a native of tlie ihnerald
Isle, one of the victims of tlie late ,irsenid
explosion, died in this city, and immediate
ly preparations were made to give him a
nice, genteel funeral. It was at first arrang
ed that he should be buried here, but some
of bis kindred being buried nt Parkersbuig,
West Virginia, it was finally determined
that what remained of poor Johnny M
should be sent to that place. Accordingly,
idler a "wake,"' (one -f the good old sort,)
the remains uro accompanied by his sor
rowing friends and relatives to the depot, to
take the cars for the place of burial. The
funeral procession arrived at tlie depot some
time befirre the departure of the' train 111
which the remains were to go, mid the
niomiurs spent the intervening time in ns
snaging (heir sorrows at the neighboring
